After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 198: Chapter 198: Worries

Yun Shifei wasn’t against Yun Tiancheng having a new relationship; she just felt that Yun Tiancheng ought to find someone suitable for him, not a woman who was duplicitous.

So, even though Yun Shifei felt that speaking ill of others behind their backs was inappropriate, she still couldn’t resist saying it out loud.

To be honest, before coming here, her impression of this woman had been quite good. After all, this was the woman her father liked, and she’d once helped her pick out many beautiful clothes. During their interactions, she had seemed enthusiastic and particularly attentive.

Yun Shifei had developed some goodwill toward her.

Who would have known she’d witness such a scene?

A lot of things can be faked, but those subtle, unintentional details often reveal a person’s true character.

At that moment, Yun Shifei’s impression of her changed drastically.

Thus, when Yun Tiancheng asked her about it, she hesitated for a moment before deciding to speak up.

After hearing Yun Shifei’s words, Yun Tiancheng remained silent for a while before saying, "Shifei, don’t worry. Dad won’t casually find you a stepmother, nor will I let myself be easily deceived."

In his heart, nothing was more important now than his daughter.

After all, it had taken so many years to reunite, and she had endured plenty of grievances before. If, at this point, he were to marry a malicious stepmother, he wouldn’t be much of a man.

Hearing Yun Tiancheng say this, Yun Shifei felt reassured.

Yun Tiancheng was accomplished in his career, had a large family business, and a good personality. Apart from his "burden" of a daughter, he had virtually no flaws. Finding a woman wouldn’t be difficult.

However, Yun Shifei worried that some women might approach Yun Tiancheng with ulterior motives. She simply hoped her father could find happiness.

"Dad, are you dating Auntie now?" Yun Shifei asked tentatively.

What if Yun Tiancheng had already grown fond of her?

Yun Tiancheng smiled and shook his head. "Little girl, at my age, I’ve seen all sorts of storms. Plus, your mom and I haven’t divorced—how could I possibly date someone else? Wouldn’t that be unfair to other women?"
